During the visit, Secretary Pritzker talked to MBDA staff about her
commitment to supporting the Agency’s mission of helping minority-owned
businesses grow and create American jobs.

The secretary, who was familiar with MBDA’s work prior to joining Commerce, commended the agency on their recent annual performance report[7], and told employees that she looks forward to working with them to further the department’s mission.

During her recent address to the Commerce workforce, Secretary Pritzker
emphasized she would work every day – 24/7 – to ensure that everyone in
Washington, DC, across the country and around the world knows the great
work agencies and employees are doing.

MBDA National Director David Hinson, speaking on behalf of the MBDA
team, said that he was thrilled the secretary took time to visit the
agency’s employees so early in her tenure, adding that the visit is an
example of her commitment to employees, businesses and the nation’s
economy.

MBDA is the only federal agency solely dedicated to the growth and
global competitiveness of U.S. minority-owned businesses. Our programs
and services equip minority-owned firms to create jobs, build scale and
capacity, increase revenues and expand regionally, nationally and
internationally. Services are provided through a nationwide network of
MBDA Business Centers, as well as through MBDA headquarters and a
National Federal Procurement Center in Washington, DC.
